Weed Control for your Latrobe, PA Lawn

The best way to battle weeds in your garden is to stop them from growing in the first place. While it's tough to control weeds completely, D-Bug can help keep them to a minimum with our Latrobe, PA weed control services. Some of the methods we use to keep weeds at bay include aeratingyour lawns’ soil, making sure your lawn is dense and vigorous, and watering deeply, but not too frequently and using herbicides when necessary. We also can patch bare areas as soon as they become visible and mechanically dig and pull up new or foreign weeds as needed to stop them from spreading.

Mowing your lawn with a sharply bladed mower is another effective way to combat weeds.

Lawn Aeration Latrobe, PA

Aeration helps your lawn grow stronger and fuller. This service works by perforating the soil with small holes. These little holes will break up the soil and make it ready to more easily accept air, water, seed, and fertilizer so that nutrients have a chance to penetrate your lawn’s roots. We aerate in the spring and fall for maximum effectiveness. Having this done in fall will help your lawn better deal with the winter months while greatly improving its health and beauty come spring.

Combine this service with overseeding and fertilizing for the best results. Aeration will set the stage for fertilizer, seed, and water to fill the holes and supply your lawn with the balanced diet that it needs to grow in full and strong!
